WHY WEEKLY THERAPY ISN'T ENOUGH FOR MANY CHILDREN
Traditional once-a-week therapy often creates a frustrating cycle:
- Your child makes a breakthrough in a session
- Waits a full week before the next session
- Loses momentum and progress between appointments
- Falls back into old patterns before therapy can reinforce new skills
- Progress stretches over months or years with frequent setbacks
Our intensive approach solves this problem by providing multiple therapeutic contacts per week, creating momentum and continuous reinforcement of new skills. This concentrated format helps children maintain engagement and motivation, rather than stretching the process over years of weekly appointments.
FLEXIBLE CARE THAT MEETS YOUR FAMILY WHERE YOU ARE
Center-Based Care
Traditional in-person therapy at our welcoming center with free transportation provided for families who need it.
Virtual Sessions
As Lizzy shared in her review, 'Amber at the Keller office accommodated me and was able to meet me where I was through Zoom.' Our virtual program delivers the same intensive therapy for families in rural areas.
School-Based Therapy
Our therapists work directly in your child's school, providing therapy during the school day and helping teachers implement supportive strategies.
A BETTER ALTERNATIVE TO HOSPITALIZATION
Many parents feel hospitalization is their only option when a child is in crisis, but our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) often provide better outcomes:
As Karalyn M. noted in her review: ‘Their Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) provide exceptional support and care, helping individuals on their journey to better mental health.’
Our programs offer:
More therapy hours than many inpatient settings
Your child sleeps in their own bed each night
No traumatic separation from family
Real-world skill practice in actual environments
Significantly lower cost than hospitalization
Smoother transition back to normal life
PARENTS AND SIBLINGS GET HELP TOO—AT NO EXTRA COST
Unlike traditional therapy that focuses solely on the child, we provide complimentary family therapy sessions because we know mental health affects the entire household:
- Free weekly parent therapy sessions
- Sibling support groups at no additional cost
- Parent coaching on techniques to use at home
- 24/7 parent support line for crisis situations
- Parent-to-parent mentoring connections
As Blake L. shared in his review: ‘Come here send your family here great place!’ We treat the whole family system because lasting change requires support for everyone involved.’
WE ACCEPT MEDICAID AND WORK WITH YOUR INSURANCE
Financial concerns shouldn’t prevent your child from getting help. As Kiya S. mentioned in her review, ‘They worked well with my insurance provider and my employee short term disability team.
We make mental health care accessible by:
- Accepting Medicaid for ALL services
- Working with most major insurance providers
- Creating payment plans for those without coverage
- Helping navigate insurance authorizations
- Never turning away families due to financial constraints
As Lizzy B. noted, ‘Mind Above Matter is working with me to let me start on a payment plan because me having to have everything all at once. Financial issues can be a huge barrier to Mental Health Treatment.’
A CARING TEAM THAT MEETS YOU WHERE YOU ARE
As Pernell R. shared in his review: ‘From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and supported. The staff is incredibly kind, compassionate, and professional. They truly care about their patients and go above and beyond to create a safe, non-judgmental environment.
Our approach combines:
- Comprehensive assessment of your child’s unique needs
- Evidence-based therapies customized for each child
- Medication management when appropriate
- Creative therapies including art and music
- Group sessions for peer support and shared learning
- Family therapy to strengthen support systems
We believe intensive, early intervention produces faster, more lasting results than years of weekly therapy sessions alone.

About Our Intensive Approach
Traditional therapy offers just 1 hour per week, which often leads to minimal progress over years. Our intensive approach provides 20 hours weekly for 6 weeks, delivering the equivalent of 6 months of traditional therapy in just over a month. This concentrated approach creates momentum and breakthrough results, especially for children struggling with severe anxiety, depression, or school refusal.
Most parents notice initial improvements within the first 1-2 weeks of our intensive program. Children typically show reduced anxiety symptoms and improved willingness to engage in previously avoided activities by week 2. More significant changes in school attendance and social functioning often emerge by weeks 3-4. Our data shows that 78% of children with school refusal return to regular attendance within 6 weeks of starting treatment.
After completing the intensive phase, we transition your child to a customized maintenance program. This typically involves 1-2 sessions weekly to reinforce gains and address any emerging challenges. Your family’s dedicated care coordinator will develop this plan based on your child’s specific progress and ongoing needs. Many families gradually reduce session frequency over 3-6 months as improvements stabilize.
About Our Treatment Options
We’ve eliminated transportation barriers in three ways: 1) We provide free transportation to our center for families without reliable transport, 2) We offer virtual sessions via secure video platform, as Lizzy mentioned in her review about accessing care through Zoom, and 3) We can provide therapy in your child’s school when appropriate. Your care coordinator will help determine which option works best for your family.
Our virtual program delivers the same intensive therapy through secure video sessions. We provide all necessary materials in advance and use engaging, interactive techniques specifically designed for virtual engagement. As Lizzy B. shared, “Mind Above Matter recognized how bad I need this treatment to address my trauma and scheduled me for my orientation to start the program the following day. I’m so grateful for this.”
Yes. Our school-based therapy program works directly with your child’s school to provide therapy sessions during the school day. This approach is particularly effective for children with school refusal or anxiety. Our therapists also collaborate with teachers to implement supportive strategies in the classroom, making the entire school environment more conducive to your child’s success.
About Insurance and Cost
Yes. We accept Medicaid for all services we provide, including psychiatry, therapy, group sessions, and family therapy. Unlike many providers who limit Medicaid slots or offer reduced services, we provide the same comprehensive care to all patients regardless of insurance type. As Kiya S. mentioned in her review, we work directly with insurance providers to maximize your benefits.
As Lizzy B. noted in her review, “Financial issues can be a huge barrier to Mental Health Treatment.” We understand this reality and work with every family to find solutions, including payment plans that spread costs over time. Our financial counselors will help you navigate insurance benefits, apply for assistance programs, and create a financial approach that makes quality care accessible.
The cost varies based on your insurance coverage and specific program. However, we’re committed to making intensive care affordable. After insurance, most families pay between $20-75 per session. We provide a complete financial breakdown before treatment begins so there are never surprise bills. Our financial counselors can also help determine if you qualify for any additional assistance programs to reduce costs further.
About Our Results
Our program shows that 82% of children achieve significant symptom reduction and functional improvement by completion of the intensive program. This compares to approximately 40-45% improvement rates in traditional weekly therapy over 6-12 months. As Mark K. shared, “I walked out a different person. I will always have them to thank for the recovery path that I am on today.”
We use both clinical assessments and real-world functional measures. Weekly standardized assessments track symptom reduction, while daily monitoring captures behavioral changes like sleep quality, social engagement, and academic participation. Parents complete brief weekly feedback forms, and we conduct comprehensive progress evaluations every two weeks to adjust treatment as needed.
Previous therapy failure is actually common among our clients. Traditional approaches often fail because they’re too infrequent or don’t address the whole family system. As Neida G. shared, “Lexi was my therapist and I just wanted to say that she was the best! She helped me a lot and opened my eyes on a lot of things I was going through.” Our intensive, multi-modal approach succeeds where others have failed.
